Function fields #
This file defines a function field and the ring of integers corresponding to it.
Main definitions #
FunctionField Fq Fstates thatFis a function field over the (finite) fieldFq, i.e. it is a finite extension of the field of rational functions in one variable overFq.FunctionField.ringOfIntegersdefines the ring of integers corresponding to a function field as the integral closure ofFq[X]in the function field.FunctionField.inftyValuation: The place at infinity onFq(t)is the nonarchimedean valuation onFq(t)with uniformizer1/t.FunctionField.FqtInfty: The completionFq((tβ»ΒΉ))ofFq(t)with respect to the valuation at infinity.
Implementation notes #
The definitions that involve a field of fractions choose a canonical field of fractions,
but are independent of that choice. We also omit assumptions like Finite Fq or
IsScalarTower Fq[X] (FractionRing Fq[X]) F in definitions,
adding them back in lemmas when they are needed.

function field, ring of integers
F is a function field over the finite field Fq if it is a finite
extension of the field of rational functions in one variable over Fq.
Note that F can be a function field over multiple, non-isomorphic, Fq.
Equations
Instances For
F is a function field over Fq iff it is a finite extension of Fq(t).
The function field analogue of NumberField.ringOfIntegers:
FunctionField.ringOfIntegers Fq Fqt F is the integral closure of Fq[t] in F.
We don't actually assume F is a function field over Fq in the definition,
only when proving its properties.

The place at infinity on Fq(t) #
The valuation at infinity is the nonarchimedean valuation on Fq(t) with uniformizer 1/t.
Explicitly, if f/g β Fq(t) is a nonzero quotient of polynomials, its valuation at infinity is
exp (degree(f) - degree(g)).
